#THE FLASHBACKS WERE SO GOOD
#THEY WAY THEY CUT BETWEEN BOTH OBI-WAN AND VADER REMEMBERING THEM
#AND THAT VADER IS STILL REFUSING TO LEARN FROM THEM
#HE IS STILL DESPERATE TO PROVE HIMSELF, HE IS STILL AN EMPTY BUCKET WITH A HOLE IN THE BOTTOM
#NOTHING IS EVER ENOUGH
#THERE IS NO SELF-SATISFACTION IN HIM HE’S CONSTANTLY LOOKING TO OTHERS TO FILL HIM UP TO JUSTIFY HIMSELF TO THEM TO PROVE HIMSELF TO THEM
#AND THIS IS WHO VADER STILL IS
#ANAKIN BARELY EVEN LETS OBI-WAN FINISH SAYING JEDI DEFEND LIFE NOT TAKE IT
#BEFORE HE’S AGGRESSIVELY SWINGING HIS LIGHTSABER AGAIN
#’YOUR NEED TO PROVE YOURSELF IS YOUR UNDOING. UNTIL YOU OVERCOME IT, YOU ARE A PADAWAN STILL.’
#AND I KIND OF LOVE THAT IT’S HAYDEN’S OLDER FACE HERE
#THE ONE THAT DARTH VADER WOULD BE WEARING RIGHT NOW WITHOUT THE BURNS
#BECAUSE DARTH VADER IS STILL A PADAWAN
#AND THE FLASHBACKS ARE SET AT AN INTERESTING TIME
#BECAUSE THIS ISN’T DURING THE WAR
#THIS IS WHEN ANAKIN WAS A PADAWAN IT’S BEFORE THE WAR
#THE WAR DIDN’T SHAPE HIM INTO THIS IT’S WHO HE’S ALWAYS CHOSEN TO BE
#WHO HE IS STILL CHOOSING TO BE
#THAT’S THE WHOLE POINT THAT VADER KNOWS THESE FLASHBACKS THEY’RE JUST AS MUCH HIS AS OBI-WAN’S
#AND HE STILL DOESN’T LEARN FROM HIS AGGRESSION HERE NOT WORKING
#OBI-WAN DISARMS HIM AND POINTS OUT WHAT HE NEEDS TO LEARN
#BUT ALL ANAKIN TAKES AWAY IS ‘MERCY DOESN’T DEFEAT ENEMIES’
#AND IT’S JUST EVERYTHING THAT IS ANAKIN SKYWALKER AND DARTH VADER

There’s just one thing I want from the Kenobi show. And it isn’t even gay this time.
I just want lots of crazy action to happen in close proximity to Luke. And him be completely oblivious to it. Obi-Wan crash-lands an x-wing in the Dune Sea and Luke walks past it staring at a datapad like “Hey Ben.”
Obi-Wan duels three Inquisitors at the same time on a mountain top and Luke’s just doing his chores in the background like “Wow, what a boring planet. Oh, look at that. More sand.”

Sometimes I try to imagine what he was like. I know that feeling. As Jedi, we’re taken from our families when we’re very young. I still have glimpses, flashes really, my mother’s shawl, my father’s hands. (
